I'm looking for some opinions.My 69 GTX had F70 14s Redlines on it from the factory.I don't have 14" rims but I could buy a set if need be,I do have 15" right now.My questions is does the car look better with the 14s versus the 15s?I not judging the car so it dosen't matter about being orginal to me.I see they offer a G70 15 redline.So does one set look better than the other?I would like to add that I'm thinking of the bias plys not the radials.
Thanks
Joe

The G70x15's are very high priced because they are specific to the A12 lift off hood cars and they likely price them high because they don't sell that many. You might want to consider F70x15's. They are probably less than 1/2 as much?

There are advantages to the 15's but myself I like the look of the 14's w/ trim rings. I don't think aybody sells 15's w/ the rings. Could be wrong though.

I'm running painted steelies and hub caps so I'm not running the trim rings.I was just thinking the 15s might fill the wheel house more and look better.
